There are occasions when a server name search on the dashboard on ESM returns an error page with “contact administrator” message.
<br>
If this happens
- get the esm logfiles.
- open logfile-websevice file
- verify that this log file has the messages “ProtocolError: (‘Connection aborted.’, error(111, ‘Connection refused’))”
If the message above is in the log file, restart the solr service.
<br>
Restarting solr service on Windows
- open up the windows task manager
- click services tab
- find solr Jetty service
- restart solr Jetty service
<br>
Restating solr service on Linux
- Open linux terminal application
- Type “sudo restart ESMWebservice”, OR “sudo /etc/init.d/ESMWebservice restart”, which will restart webservice and sorl service.
Once solr has restarted, verify that you can search for a server name on the ESM dashboard.
